http://www.howtostudy.com/ - another complex site dedicated only for studying and how to prepare yourself academically

http://users.clas.ufl.edu/ufhatch/pages/02-TeachingResources/study/ - my first ever article about studying and time management. I think it was 3 or 4 years ago and I remember it motivated me so much for some reason that I started searching for more and more and that’s how I discovered the studyblr community.

1.11.15 // Currently waiting for my classmate to arive at my place so that we can FINALLY finish our assignment. I’m seriously debating whether I should just start, because I’ve been waiting for about an hour now and she lives like 5mins away from me :( If anybody feels like talking about dystopian literature, hit me up, I could really need the distraction/preparation.

lots of chemistry revision today after being super unproductive for my first week of winter break 🌟 (also sorry i’ve been quite mia for a few weeks, i’ve been SO busy and my queue ran out)

I did some drawings on my ipad using the goodnotes app and referencing google images.

1/100 The beginning of my physics unit 4 notes and planning my holiday revision in my bullet journal

03.06.19 - monday

during exams i used to get really stressed out about not having enough time to study between, so i designed myself a lil study planner that maps out my week

it has a section for events, a checklist, and a time tracker so i can tell myself to stop freaking out :)

stupid leftists and their belief in *checks notes* the intrinsic value of human life

some study tips from my psychology teacher 📖

STOP Cramming

cramming is good for the short term, such as just before a test (i’m talking like an hour before), but shouldn’t be used as an effective study method. you only learn the information in the exact way you read it, so any practical application on your test won’t be easy to answer. you also will struggle with answering the same questions you studied for, but asked differently.

Spacing Effect

the spacing effect is essentially the opposite of cramming. instead of doing a 4 hour study session, break it up into groups of 30 minutes. do 30 minutes, take a nice long break, go back for 30, and repeat. that break in between gives your brain time to encode and store the information. this can be done in either one day, or over the course of a few days before the test.

Mnemonic devices are your best friend when dealing with lists of information

any sort of rhyming scheme, letter association, acronyms, etc. is proven to help you. any american can say ROY G. BIV and know exactly what they’re talking about, another example is HOMES for the great lakes. another major example is “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally”/PEMDAS for the order of operations. this helps with lists, i use it all the time in biology for stuff like the Levels of Classification or Characteristics of Living things. for AP Euro i remember “Descartes with a D” because he “Doubts and wrote Discorse on Method”.

Hierarchy Organizing for Midterms and Finals

by breaking information down into a hierarchy, you can figure out how to study all your chapters at once. these are often called “graphic organizers” and it takes the whole topic, then breaks it into subsections, then subsections of those subsections. here’s an example i found for my Memory unit

the whole unit is memory, the subtopics are sensory memory, short term, then long term. then comes the subdivisions of long term memory and so on. this is wonderful for study planning in regards to large information tests.

these are just some of the tips we talked about, and obviously they won’t work for everybody, but it’s really helped my studying process because it’s literally how the brain processes information best for long term storage and retrieval.
